The Discrimination-Free Celebrant shows that it's not enough for a celebrant to add a rainbow logo to their website and social media and say they're inclusive. True inclusivity is about recognising where we hold prejudices and biases and being honest enough with ourselves as we unravel them. It's only from this place of radical honesty that we can truly make a difference in people's lives as well as our own.

Behind Closed Doors Book Two, The Gypsy Moon Trilogy As Starr Linden begins writing a series of syndicated articles on the theme of Behind Closed Doors, she soon realises that the most potent story of all is within her own family. Her aunt Astrid's journey to reclaiming motherhood brings her family of origin together, and as she finds a way through the trauma which has eroded her heart for decades, she discovers that, in one way or another, we all live behind closed doors, and that what lives in our heart is visible to the whole world.
